Instructions
- Shred the cabbage finely using a sharp knife or a food processor.
- Fry the cabbage in 2–3 ounces (60–90 g) butter in a large frying or wok pan on medium-high heat, but don't let the cabbage turn brown. It takes a while for the cabbage to soften.
- Add spices and vinegar. Stir and fry for a couple of minutes more. Put the cabbage in a bowl.
- Melt the rest of the butter in the same frying pan. Add garlic, chili flakes and ginger and sauté for a few minutes.
- Add ground meat and brown until the meat is thoroughly cooked and most of the juices have evaporated. Lower the heat a little.
- Add scallions and cabbage to the meat. Stir until everything is hot. Add salt and pepper to taste, and top with the sesame oil before serving.
- Mix together the wasabi mayonnaise by starting with a small amount of wasabi and adding more until the flavor is just right. Serve the stir-fry warm with a dollop of wasabi mayonnaise on top.

Just above the ingredient list, choose 1 serving in drop down menu.
You can alter all the recipes on here by the drop down menu where it says 4 servings. You can alter down to 1 or 2, or 5 upwards. I am on my own and I tend to do what the plan says - eat it for tea and then lunch the next day so cook for two. Don't want to cook for four. Tgen you are only cooking once or twice a day and not three!
Also no good counting calories on this diet. Do Rosemary Conley if people want to count calories. You loose weight by using your fat tank from ketosis. My brother is a doctor and he says this is the best plus it is sustainable. Cut out bread, pasta, rice and spuds, and eat veg that to grow above ground not under. Easy!
- tonight and lunch tomorrow, as per the two-week trial I am on.
